Is IET suitable for Mechanical Engineers?

Former Community Member

I have a friend who has a BEng(Hons) and MSc in Mechanical Engineering.

I told him IET may suit him.

He told me IET is for Electrical Engineers.

I told him IET is Institution of Engineering and Technology, IET is multi-disciplines.

He still not believe it.

What should I tell him?

    Hi, I have been a member of The IET since 1979  first off as an IEng and progressed to CEng. I am a Mechanical Engineer. Originally Plant & Production. I have been involved with the Automotive sector for over 35 years in many positions including R&D.

    I would say that The IET caters for all Engineers including Mechanical Engineers.  I like to consider that this is an encompassing Institution and fosters all professions within it. We are all Engineers whatever the discipline !  Not only does this Institution openly promotes this but also encompasses all diversity be it Gender or origin. ( Just note the emphasis on our branches abroad and Women Engineer initiatives)

    Of course there is "competition" with other bodies...good for life I say !
